Authorities are considering charges against a driver who police said was speeding on Highland Avenue in a Lamborghini SUV on March 31 and crashed into a Toyota RAV4 occupied by five teens, killing a 19-year-old girl and injuring the four others in the Toyota.

Detective David Holmes, with the Los Angeles Police Department’s West Traffic Division, said on April 15 that the case has been presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office and is under review. The Lamborghini’s driver and a female passenger abandoned the damaged SUV and fled on foot after the violent crash around 1:30 a.m. at the intersection of Highland Avenue and First Street. The female passenger later returned to the scene and cooperated with police.

Holmes said investigators had a “good idea” who was behind the wheel of the Lamborghini, but he provided few details because a thorough investigation was necessary before the case was presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. The Lamborghini driver’s name has not been released pending an arrest on formal charges.

The Los Angeles County Office of Medical Examiner identified the victim as 19-year-old Yobil Ann Cueto. A Go Fund Me account has been established for Cueto at gofundme.com/f/yobil-ann-coloma-cueto-memorial-fund. It had raised $3,970 as of April 16.

“It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Yobil Ann Coloma Cueto, a truly cherished member of our family and community. While we are focused on honoring Yobil’s memory, we are also grappling with the unexpected financial burden of funeral expenses. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to ensure Yobil Cueto receives a dignified send-off, for she has left our world too early at 19 years old,” read a statement on the Go Fund Me account.
